I am betting that Shane has the best answer for this question.

I am a long time user of Final Cut. Recently I worked on my first project using AVID and was very mystified. They said they capture at 15/1 ratio and it seems to be about 31 mbps. So if they were capturing at a 1/1 ratio, that just seems like a very large file for just one minute of footage. Am I crazy or doesn't Final Cut give you a better quality video for far less storage space?

They said they capture at 15/1 ratio and it seems to be about 31 mbps.
Yes, that is an "offline" resolution. Like Offline RT is in FCP, or ProRes Proxy. Good only to see what you are cutting. You recapture at full resolution later. This is the very typical and standard Avid workflow that has worked well for decades.
So if they were capturing at a 1/1 ratio, that just seems like a very large file for just one minute of footage.
Yes....1:1 is comparable to Uncompressed 10 bit in FCP, which also produces very large media files. Avid also has a DV codec, for capturing DV material, and that is comparable to FCPs DV codec. Lossless, yet small, because they are native DV codecs.
Am I crazy or doesn't Final Cut give you a better quality video for far less storage space?
You are crazy. As JIm said, there are many different flavors of codecs. Avid's 1:1 is comparable to FCP's Uncompressed 10-bit. Avid DV is FCP DV. Avid's DNxHD, the preferred codec of choice now, was revolutionary as it gave 1:1 quality at much smaller file sizes. FCP follows suit with ProRes...full uncompressed quality, smaller file size.

TA24002 My 500 GB can't verify nor repair. I have photoshop work that I need to recover. I would like to know which erase option would be the best solution for this problem.

My 500 GB can't verify nor repair. I have photoshop work that I need to recover. I would like to know what option would be the best solution for this problem?

You appear to have two issues: 1) a hard drive that is not working properly and 2) files you wish to recover.
Re 1) you need to answer Kappy's questions.
Re 2) does the drive load and can you see your photo files? If so can you copy them to another drive?
Do you not have a backup of the photo files?

WhatÃÂ¢ÃÂÃÂs the best practice for this scenario?

Hi,
My users want the ability to change the WHERE and/or ORDER BY clause at runtime. They may define user preferences on each screen ( which is bind to a view object). They want to see the same records based on WHERE/ORDER BY defined on the last visit. That is why I keep the users preferences and load the screen based on that, using :
View.setWhereClause(...);
View.setOrderByClause(...);
View.executeQuery();
This works good when only one user working with the application but faced low performance when more than one user working with the application.
What are the points to increase the performance and what is the best practice for this scenario?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Sung,
I am talking only about 2 users in my testing. I am sure i missed something but could not recognize that.
This page is my custom query page including a tag to instantiate app module in stateful mode at the top <jbo:ApplicationModule..> and a tag to instantiate data source <jbo:Datasource...> and release tag at the bottom <jbo:ReleasePageResources..> and some java code in the middle(body). The java code constructed the query statement and then fires the query to set the view object based on the query statement using the above methods.
So, I am facing very slow performance(speed) when two clients load this page at the same time. Looks like the entire application locks for others when one client load this page and fire the query. i realized the battle neck is where executeQuery() is executing.
what do you think.
Thanks in advance for your comments.

I can't get good Verizon service in the Pa mountains. I have to go 12 miles to the nearest town to make a phone call. What gives? I thought that Verizon has the best coverage of any of the big companies.

I am now in the Pa mountains and I can't get any Verizon wireless phone service. I thought that Verizon had the best coverage of any of the big companies. Why can't I use my smartphone?

I just recently moved from FL (where I had great service) to PA. My zip is 17814 and I have a Samsung Galaxy III phone which really doesn't work anywhere except when I go 2 the nearest town. I am most annoyed because my neighbor has a Sprint phone and he can get service even at my house! I hope I don't have 2 get another cell phone while I am in PA...I have been a Verizon customer 4 many years.

H.264 What is the best use for this? H.264 Pros & Cons?

I wanted to know since I am using DV what if any role can H.264 play in my workflow? What are the intended or best uses for this? What are H.264 pros and cons? Will it produce higher quality than DV?
As always thanks in advance for reading and replying to my post,
Sebastian

It will not make DV look better, it is a MPEG4 based compression format for material to be delivered over the web. As such, encoding your material to it it is the last step in the editing process.

What is the correct answer is this question is sql ?

hi .. please i need correct answer in this question ..
View the Exhibit and examine the structure of the PRODUCTS table.
Using the PRODUCTS table, you issue the following query to generate the names, current list price, and
discounted list price for all those products whose list price falls below $10 after a discount of 25% is applied
on it.
SQL>SELECT prod_name, prod_list_price,
prod_list_price - (prod_list_price * .25) "DISCOUNTED_PRICE"
FROM products
WHERE discounted_price < 10;
The query generates an error.
What is the reason for the error?
A-The parenthesis should be added to enclose the entire expression.
B-The double quotation marks should be removed from the column alias.
C-The column alias should be replaced with the expression in the WHERE clause.
D-The column alias should be put in uppercase and enclosed with in double quotation marks in the WHERE clause.

Is an array the best solution for this problem?

Hi there,
I'm working up a demo where a couple of little games would show up in a panel. There is a main menu that you bounce around to select things (the games as well as other apps.)
When a single game is running, it takes up the whole panel. When two or more are running, they run in a "mini" format. Also, when a game is running, a special "return to game" button appears in the main menu.
This is a click through dog and pony show demo. It's not a production app, but it has to work well enough to be played around with by internal clients. So it has to work well.
Right now I have some variables set up like so:
var gameActive:Boolean = false;
var gameDual:Boolean = false;
In my launch game and menu function, I am checking these (and one or two other) variables to see if I should do things like show a mini version of the game or show the return to game button. As I add features though, this is becoming slightly unwieldy.
The key issue is the games. Let's say I have only two. I could make an array, and then load in the game name when a game is launched. I could check this array in my functions to see not only if games are launched, but which game is launched so I can use the full or mini games as appropriate.
Is this a good approach, or is there a better way? I'm rusty with my coding and not super comfortable making objects right now. But I could go that way if it was the best.

there's not much to it. here are the only 3 things you're likely to need to do with your associative array:
var yourAA:Object={};
function addAAItem(aa:Object,o:DisplayObject){
aa[o.name]=o;
function removeAAItem(aa:Object,o:DisplayObject{
aa[o.name]=null;
function aaLength(aa:Object):int{
var i:int=0;
for(var s:String in aa){
i++;
return i;

Is Illustrator (or Photoshop) the best path for this design project?

Hello,
Forgive my ignorance on this issue.
I am thinking about creating a number of large banners (8 feet high by 3 feet wide) for a display.
I would like to take some scanned images of some historical mural paintings (out of copyright) and prepare them for large format printing.
Now these images are small, and probably quite poor in resolution. I would like to prepare (enhance?) these images so that they show fairly well on the large banners.
Furthermore, I will probably add some borders around them or at least some kind of neutral-colour field on the top and bottom of the image--so the actually printed image will probably be around 4 feet fight by 3 feet wide.
I thought about hiring a designer, but I would like to pick up the skills to do this myself, as I anticipate more banners in the future, and it would be good to learn this skill.
Willing to do take some courses in the appropriate software, and make this my first project perhaps.
Is Illustrator or Photoshop better for this? Or is there something else?
Thank you for any guidance you can offer.

markerline,
You may look at it this way (literally):
The crucial aspect is the relation between viewing distance and size.
The required number of actual pixels is proportional to the actual size and reversely proportional to the viewing distance.
In other words: if you look at a poster (or whatever) twice the size at twice the distance, exactly the same number of pixels is required.
In yet other words: if you view the artwork at a combination of size and distance that correspond to those intended for the final poster, you can see how it will appear.
In yet other words: the same proportion between size and distance results in the same viewing angle, so if your viewing angle is the same, whatever the size, you see what the final viewer sees.
This means that you may judge the artwork on screen or in small/moderate size print if you view it at the intended angle/relative distance.
The required resolution in PPI/DPI will then be reversely proportional to the size of the artwork while you work on it (10 times greater for a 1:10 scale and so on).
Obviosly, in addition, there are other concerns about required resolution (including which resolution is really effective in connexion with the kind of printing in question, and the desirability of smoothness versus roughness which depends on the artwork/effect/whatever in question). I believe you know all that.

What is the best practice for this?

Hi,
I have a huge package, let's say including 100 procedures.
These procedures(with package name qualifier) are called all around the application. Now i want to divide it to 5 packages each one including 20 procedures.
What is the best practice to do this with minimum changes in the application?

First step before doing anything with OD is to make certain that local DNS services are correct. To verify that, launch Terminal.app from Applications > Utilities on the test server, and issue the following harmless, diagnostic command:
sudo changeip -checkhostname
You'll need to enter your administrative password for the sudo to be accepted.
If the output from that command reports no changes are required, then an export from the original OD and an import into the test system would be typical for testing, if you trust what's in the original OD.

Hi I have an xml file in my application. over a period of time i have to add few nodes to the existing xml file.
In my business logic when a specific requirement is met i have to add one child node to the existing parent node for an existing xml file.
what is the best way to do this? which api is the best for this?

using DOM parser we can parse the xml file but can we write to XML file?Sure. That's the inverse operation of parsing, and it's called "serializing".
The usual way to serialize a DOM to a file is to create a Transformer and apply the identity transformation to the DOM. However there are also third-party XML serializers that don't take that approach.I have not understood what the identity transformation mean. but i have searched for an example and found the following way to do it using Transformer. I hope what i find is right.
Transformer tFormer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
          tFormer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.METHOD, "xml");
          Source source = new DOMSource(doc);
          Result result = new StreamResult(new File(url.toURI()));
          tFormer.transform(source, result);

Is BDC the best option for this?

Hi,
I have to create a "Z" transaction to perform some of the functionality of MMSC. Basically I need to read thru a set of user-entered materials and extend them to all storage locations in all plants.
Is BDC the best way to accomplish the loads or should I try to take some code from the standard MMSC transaction (SAPMM03M) and use that in my "Z" program...or is there a completely different approach?
Thanks for your thoughts!
Andy

Hello Andy,
The Main difference is BDC & LSMW is that in BDC itself you have to depend upon the technical constraints but for the LSMW you have yr funtional criteria strong and follow their 14 steps of performing process to completion of LSMW. your job would get done. but for the BDC you have to depend upon the programming portion which is somewhat tedious.

Is iPhoto the best application for this?

I want to create a presentation that I record for distribution as an mp4. I'll be using various slides, like in a powerpoint presentation. For the audio, I will use my voice.
Do I create the audio first and then the video or the video first and then the audio?
Is there a better program to use than iPhoto? I currently have iPhoto 08, but can upgrade to iPhoto 09.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jeanie

Jeanie:
Do you still have a copy of iMovie HD 6 available? If so I would recommend you use that for creating your presentation as it allows precise alignment of audio to the video/slides. It came with my Power Mac G5 Dual-core 2GHz and can be extracted from the install disks that came with the computer using Pacifist

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

Is Flash the best program for this?

i don't about the best but all but one of those effects are simple in flash.

I am betting that Shane has the best answer for this question.
